This week, we're recording on election day while awaiting results to find out which version of "Democrats are doing it wrong!" the pundits will run with tomorrow.

We open with words of wisdom from Illinois Governor JB Pritzker to the American Federation of Teachers. Then we come to bury Dick Cheney, not to praise him.

We'll explore our "12 Rules for Staying Fing Sane," which we redefine as a playbook for Democratic victories. And then we dive deep into Three Days of the Condor (RIP Robert Redford). MAGA voters simultaneously demand government protection for their economic interests while raging against assistance for "undeserving" others. What does Cliff Robertson's character Higgins teach us about "paternalistic authoritarianism" and the fascist bargain?

Plus: Why getting rid of Citizens United, child tax credits, and taxing the rich all poll very well—but you'd never know it from the consultant class.

Not safe for work. Recorded live from the Cornfield Resistance.
